Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Sandeep
Sandeep uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.
🇮🇳 Thane, Maharashtra, India201 views
Sandeep has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Sandeep can only go outside when two neighbors are available to lift the chair.
The materials (treated timber, screws and non-slip surface) have been donated by a local lumberyard. We need a carpenter or two to measure, cut and build, plus a helper or two.
The ramp has to meet the building-code slope requirement, which is why a person with building experience is important. We estimate eight hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Sandeep's family will cook lunch for the team.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

hang in there. I hope things turn around soon. I hope May is when things finally get easier.
Hope it all works out, Usha. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
